Windows Phone has had a terrible start with phantom data use causing high use bills for users http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-12152517 and also an issue in the EAS which will not alert the handset to stop trying to send if the email address is wrong or if the Exchange limit for sending attachments is met – as I work for a carrier I have seen this mean that a windows phone user trying to send a 12mb file when their exchange limit is 10mb – result 4GB excess use – £4000 bill.
